Tag Archives: Orange Olive and Onion Pizza

After having such success with my very first homemade pizza Friday night, I decided to branch out a little with the second one! The recipe for pizza dough from Linda at Savoring Every Bite makes two pizzas. For the second one, a few nights later, I couldn’t help but remember the orange salad I made the other day. The sweet, flavorful oranges mixed with thinly sliced red onion and salty green olives was so tasty I thought it should be made into a pizza! Who knows, perhaps it will become a classic!

After preparing the dough according to Linda’s recipe, add some shredded mozzarella and pecorino romano cheeses. Peel two large oranges with a sharp knife, leaving no pith. Slice and add to the pizza. Add a generous handful of roughly chopped large green olives and some thinly sliced red onion. I added just a bit more of the pecorino. Bake at 425 degrees for about 18 to 20 minutes. A very different taste for a pizza, but one I think you will enjoy! Ritchey loved it – and so did my sister!

I live to cook! My husband loves to eat! We make a great pair! We enjoy growing tomatoes, herbs and flowers in our back yard. Tearooms are a favorite of ours - well, almost any restaurant will do - as long as the food is good! We are passionate about history and visiting 'where it happened'. Truly we enjoy life! Life together!
